DIY Disney

[Kosmo1986]

I have an upcoming trip to WDW and I just got us season passes. I really like to make fun and unique items to bring to Disney. I am always looking for new ideas for things to make (gotta love etsy & pinterest!).

What are some things you like to make for your trip??? (pictures are always good too!)

I love those!! If you don't mind me asking, how did you make them?

I bought a 5/8 inch head band from Joann's, I buy solid colored fabric, and felt to make the accents. I also buy some 5/8 inch ribbion to wrap the head band with.

First I cut out cardboard in a circle 3 1/4 inches in diameter (i cut the bottom of the circles to curve a little so the fit on the headband), and then cut 2 circles of fabric about 4 1/4 in diameter. I glue a bit of stuffing to the cardboard to give it some shape and then I put the cardboard in between the fabric pieces and use a glue gun to glue it all together and than i use the glue gun to glue the ears onto the band. I make a simple bow out of felt and viola!

It sounds more complicated than it is LOL! I plan on making another one in the next 2 days so i will try to document it with pictures to share!

Very creative it does sound really complicated but I'll take your word for it. Awesome job I'll have to show my girlfriend I'm sure this is something she would love to try to make, thank you for showing us
